You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.

You have been working in a company for many years and have noticed that new employees often leave your company. Now write a letter to your higher authority and suggest the possible reasons for that and ways to retain them.

Write at least 150 words.

Model Answer 1:

Dear Mr David,

I am working in one of your nearshore offices in Uruguay for half a decade now. I have been noticing the employees, especially the ones with less than 3 years of work experience are quitting the company more often. I am in touch with a few of them, who actually left recently.

The more common reason, I could hear from them is there is no adequate scope for learning with the projects here. They were expected to do the same monotonous work for a long period of time, which didn't add much to their growth curve. I suggest some Learning Management Systems, which would give you self-evaluation and which can be used to assess the employee's performance as well. I hope you would consider my recommendations, so that we may be able to retain the talented young professionals, who will add more value to the business and to our company. Also by doing this, we will not spend more money in recruiting and training new people most of the time.

You feel the evening programs on a local television station are uninteresting.

Write a letter to the manager of the television station. In your letter:

Explain why you do not like the current programs

Describe what kind of programs you would like to see instead

Explain why these programs are better

Write at least 150 words.

Model Answer 1:

Dear Manager, ABC TV channel.

I am writing this letter in regards to the evening programs which are currently being broadcasted in your television channel. I am sorry to inform you that as per the current schedule of the evening slot, most of the programs are quite boring and unexciting. It would be great if you can reschedule some of these programs and introduce more exciting and absorbing programs in the evening time.

Most of these programs of the evening slot are in the category of opera soaps and the target audiences are mostly adult women. If this slot had more family entertainment programs like comedy, magic show, reality show, children-oriented programs, documentaries on wildlife or some science frictions related programs, it would have been more captivating for audiences of all ages. I believe that by introducing this variety of programs in the evening slot, your channel will definitely attract more viewers and well as advertisers. Hence, audiences of a specific age group enjoy your evening programs, you must be missing some advertising opportunities.

Evening time in each family is considered to be the reunion time. Children join their parents after completing a long day in school and in the same way parents also return home after a tiring day in office. So every member of the family prefers being in the living room in the evening as their meeting place and television as their medium of relaxation and entertainment. Now if your channel can telecast my proposed list of programs, it will cover the interest of everyone in the family.

I hope my request is valid and logical enough to draw your attention. Please reconsider about your current evening schedule of programs which are being telecasted.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to you to express my satisfaction and admiration regarding the outstanding service which I have enjoyed with some of my friends in your renowned restaurant, “La-Italiano”, a few days ago.

It was one of my friend's birthday, so we decided to celebrate it in your restaurant, as it is located at a convenient location from our living place as well as its good reputation for delicious foods.

We took traditional Italian cousin for dinner and special black forest cake from your restaurant. It really worth the money we paid because I suppose you have hired the best chef of the town! The service of the waiters was also marvellous. They were truly well-mannered, organised and skilled for serving foods. On top of that, the interior design of your place is adequately charming and mind blowing.

We also realised that how preciously your customers are being treated by your staff, when my friend got a chocolate box as a birthday gift, on behalf of your restaurant. That truly made our day.

I hope concerning authorities of your restaurant will ensure this excellent service for the long run.

You live in a room in college which you share with another student. You find it very difficult to work there because he or she always has friends visiting. They have parties in the room and sometimes borrow your things without asking you.

Write a letter to the Accommodation Officer at the college and ask for a new room next term.

You would prefer a single room. Explain your reasons.

Write at least 150 words.

Model Answer 1:

Dear Sir,

I am writing to state my dissatisfaction and problems about the current accommodation I have at college. Therefore, I would like to request you to arrange me a new room from the next session.

Although, my current room is nice and wide with attached bathroom and other facilities are pretty good, I am not satisfied with my room partner because of his immature attitude and carelessness towards cleaning and maintenance of the room. Moreover, he has a big social circle and invites lots of friends to the room on regular basis. They would like to do talk loudly, dancing, singing, even sometimes drinking which really ruin my personal life and often disturb me in preparing for exams. Last but not the least, he has a tendency to use my personal belongings without taking into consideration of my permission. In the last few months, I have lost some of my valuables from the room and I am not sure who should I blame!

Thus, I would wish to have a single room, so that I can have freedom of work and relax according to my own will. In addition to this, I would be able to concentrate more on my studies in the absence of any interference. I hope you would be kind enough to understand my severer issues related to my roommate and would arrange me a new room from the next term.

I am really glad to know that you have offered me the position of “Design Engineer” in the biomedical devices manufacturing company that you have recently started in our city. But unfortunately, I am in a situation to deny this because the contract of my current job has not been over yet. Although I already stated that I have been working in a hospital as a Service Engineer when I had a discussion with you in the conference last week, I did not mention about the bond of two years in this organisation.

Though I cannot be a part of your new team, I could suggest one of my friends who is a passionate Engineer and is currently seeking a job opportunity. After hearing from you, I can ask him to meet you personally for an interview to discuss his credentials.

I regret for not accepting this offer but I hope once my contract gets over, I would be privileged to work for your company and thank you for the offer you gave.

Why you are writing to them

Why you think the insurance should not be increased

Model Answer 1:

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I am writing this letter with regards to a letter which you send me recently stating that you are going to increase the amount of insurance for my car.

I am a regular customer of your insurance company. My new car insurance is little higher than my previous car. The sudden increase in insurance is not acceptable because you are telling me to pay 20% more in every month.

As I said I am a customer of your company for more than 10 years and I never claimed on my insurance during this period. However, other insurance companies have not increased their rates and I can think of two better alternatives that would be glad to take the hassle to transfer me under their insurance policy. I would really appreciate if you could write back to me and explain the situation why such an increase is needed. If you are unable to justify it to me, then I am afraid that I will have to move my insurance to another insurance company.

On last Sunday I had a countryside tour to visit Cloud Mountain in the southern city. I departed at 05:00 in the morning when the sky was still very dark because of foggy. When I drove at the end of express highway leading to Lauren Bridge a car in front of me suddenly turned left without any signal. It happened too fast that I could not reduce the speed and control my vehicle properly which caused an accident between us. The collation broke the left head light and damaged a part of the car. Fortunately, none of us was injured. Later we called police and incident report was issued accordingly.

In the meantime, the car was sent to a repair shop for repairing. I obviously will bear all these costs. I expect to have the car returned on this Friday as per our contract.

I am attaching herein, the copy of the report in which you can find more details about what happened. I apology for the unexpected inconvenience caused and accept to pay all compensation, if any. Please contact me at mobile number +54102350456 in needed.

I am Saman and a regular member of your library. I am writing this letter to explain why I have been unable to return the book that I borrowed two weeks earlier as it was damaged by my dog.

I planned to return the book before the deadline which was on 16th July. But I found the cover page was gone and pages 1 to 10 were missing! It's hard to read the rest of this book since there are tonnes of scratches on it. Off the top of my head, my dog destructed the book when I was out to attend a party.

I guess I forgot to feed my dog when I hurried out to attend a party. He's too hungry that thought the book was something he can eat.

For my view, I should be responsible for the book of indemnity. Please let me know how I should pay the cost or any fine.

Dear Rahul,

How are you? Hope all is fine at your end. Hey, Rahul I need your help and guidance in respect of your experience of working in Singapore. As discussed telephonically, I am also inclined to apply for certain job opportunities available in my field of expertise in different countries, especially Singapore.

The foremost reason for choosing Singapore as a country for the purpose of employment is the fact that there are abundant of opportunities available there. The kind of experience and expertise which I have earned over the past one decade, can be completely, judiciously and prudently exploited so as to give me the maximum, by the companies in Singapore.

This, however, does not mean that I will be compromising on the quality of the work that I would opt for. I plan to apply for opportunities that would be limited to the subjects over which I possess core competency, which includes Finance. It is in this respect that I needed your guidance. I would be thankful if you can guide me the work culture that is followed and is acceptable in Singapore. Apart from this, I also wanted to know the attitude of the locals towards the foreign nationals who work in such companies as their counter parts.

Since you have spent a considerable amount of time in both the countries, while in employment, it would be quite convenient for you to compare the basic requirements, expectations and behavioural changes that one undergoes during the transitional phase.

I would be thankful if you could help me by sharing your valuable experience in this regard.

Dear John,

Hi! This is Sobhan, from Delhi, your pen pal. It was nice to learn from your letter that we both share quite a lot of common interests and hobbies. The subjects that we had opted in our respective secondary studies are co-incidentally common. As a matter of fact, it is due to this reason that the industry which we both are employed in is also common. It is good to learn that you are also serving a Financial Industry, after your specialisation in the stream of Finance. However, ironically, the respective companies in which we both are employed are arch rivals in the industry of Finance.

Well, that is something on the professional side of us. Due to immense work pressure, I have lately joined yoga and meditation classes. However, I still never miss my age-old hobby of swimming. It is hard to recollect even a single day, barring the weekly off, when I miss a dip in the swimming pool. Apart from this, the weekly off is generally devoted to spending time, strictly with family. The overall credit to my health, however, goes to the one and a half session of yoga classes in the morning.

Hey, do make it a possibility to spend a few days at my residence and attend the wonderful classes of yoga. In the meanwhile, a programme by the ‘Yoga Institute’ is going to be held in your city in the month of November. I have enrolled myself for the same. The programme is for a week wherein the boarding and lodging are taken care of by the Yoga Institutes.

I will certainly try to come and meet you during the week.

Let us catch up in the coming November and till then take care and keep in touch.

You should write at least 150 words.

Model Answer 1:

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I am writing this letter to inform you that, I have left a bag on your company's bus. It was last Friday, 17th of April at around 8:00 am. I boarded at Cubao Station (Bus No. CA234) and took off at Ayala Station.

I'd tried to locate the bus at Cubao Station, but I failed to do so. It is a medium size, black in colour, backpack bag with white straps and pouch in the front. It has a panda luggage tag, that shows my name and contact details. The bag contains important document and a 14-inch white laptop (Toshiba) with a black leather cover up, and you'd notice an initial AHC in the right lower part. The content of the bag is really important to me and my work, as these documents will be utilised in the project presentation I am assigned to that will be held next month.

If you have found it kindly call me at 743-9223 or do send an email at این آدرس ایمیل توسط spambots حفاظت می شود. برای دیدن شما نیاز به جاوا اسکریپت دارید. I will arrange a pick-up with your company. Hence, if it is possible to be sent via a courier it will be a great help. I will make sure that I'll be the one to cover the delivery charge.

I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Your help will be well appreciated.

Sir / Madam, I am planning to organise a trip for my family to Manali during the upcoming summer holidays and for this, we want to hire a four wheeler. I am writing this letter to inquire about the availability of an 8 seater SUV within the time period of 5th to 10th May 2016.

Firstly, I would like to inform you that one of my grandparents is in a wheelchair and he is also escorting us on the trip. Hence the vehicle should be spacious enough as the comfort of the passengers is the foremost factor of consideration for us. Moreover, we have never been to Manali and we are totally unaware of the road maps. A car with GPRS facilities will be highly appreciated in this situation. And finally, I hope that there is no need to mention that we are expecting an AC drive in this hot summer season.

Please confirm the availability of the vehicle comprising of aforementioned amenities or an alternative with details, in the case of non-availability. I would be grateful if you can provide the quote for the same. Also looking forward to hearing about any concession from your side on the reservation of the car in advance with cash payment.

Dear Sir,

I am Milad, a cadet of your community-based rehabilitation team since 2002. I am writing to inform you that, I will not be able to continue with your organisation anymore, as I am leaving for my home country once and for all.

From the time I was enrolled, it has been a wonderful journey so far, for me. I was predominantly working with the rehabilitation team, assisting the medical panel of experts. My duties mainly comprised of the initial assessment of patients, who formed the indigent part of our local community. The assessment mainly included monitoring the physical, social and emotional wellness of patients.

As you may remember, I was pursuing my graduation here at Boston University. Now that my study permit has expired, I am preparing to leave for my home country in a couple of weeks. Henceforth, to continue with the team, would be cumbersome.

However, it would be my pleasure, to introduce one of my junior in college, who is willing to take over my position in the team. Now, the whole charade of recruitment of a new employee, the prerequisites and all, as intended I leave it upon you. His name is Mr Jackson and he will be in contact with you soon.

Once again, I would take this opportunity to thank everyone, who stood beside me during my tenure with our NGO.

Model Answer 1:

Dear Mr John,

I am writing this letter to you to book your restaurant for a graduation party we are going to through. I, with my family had visited your restaurant several times. My parents also recommend me to organise the party in your restaurant.

Tasty foods, nice environment and customer care of your waiters were very impressive. So, when I was confirmed for organising a party, your service came in my mind first and I decided to book it. The party would be a graduation party and we will enjoy every bit of it and music would be included as well. I am sure you have already arranged other graduation parties and know pretty well about the nature of this sort of party including noise, gathering and need for quick service.

We are almost 25 friends. The program will be held on 23rd March. Some friends also might use drinks for them. Please inform me your menu schedule for Dinner as well as projected cost to serve the party in your restaurant. I also hope to get a discount as a regular customer. I will be waiting for your response.

Thanking you,

Sima

Model Answer 2:

Dear Sir,

My name is Ashkan Ahmadi and I am writing to reserve a place at your dining venture named Hotel California in North Street, London. I am a student at the Loyola College and the booking intention is to conduct our graduation party for this academic year.

The graduation party, as the name implies is meant for the mushrooming young minds passing out of our college this year. As a senior post graduate student and the organizer of the function, I need to make sure the party goes well. As of now, we are flexible with the date as per the availability of the hotel but would insist on dates from 22nd to 25th of this month. We plan an overnight party starting from 20.00 hrs to 5.00 hrs next day.

Now, I reckon it is imperative to mention that our college is multicultural in nature and hence a streamlining on the food menu would be impossible. As the convener I would suggest you to include foods such as pasta, roasted chicken, burgers and sandwiches which are globally well accorded. Not to forget, please take note that there are a few vegetarians among us, so I would also appeal for something special, from your end to their delight.

Lastly, we will be around fifty people all together and hope to enjoy a memorable event held with high regards at your hotel.

Dear Sir,

I am Vishwa Vinutna. I had celebrated my birthday party at your restaurant last week with my friends. I am writing this letter to thank you for making it a successful event.

My friends and I enjoyed food at your restaurant. The Cake was so nice and everyone liked it. Your culinary staff is expert at cooking delicious food and satisfied each and everyone’s taste. The food was not only superb but also of reasonable price. Moreover, hotel staff was so polite and very keen to look after the needs of all of us. The service offered is praiseworthy. To add more, the restaurant depicts the nature’s beauty perfectly with full of glistening greenery all around. The soothing and pleasant atmosphere made the event unique and even more attractive.

However, there are some improvements which I suppose makes your restaurant still more appealing. Firstly, the increase in staff members is quite essential. Furthermore, it would be great if you could include a wide variety of cuisines in your menu.

I trust you would accept my suggestions. I look forward to seeing the improvements in the restaurant.

Yours faithfully,

Secondly, the prevailing atmosphere in the restaurant was so serene that you and all your staff right from the welcome guy to the stewardess were so cordial that we felt a homely appeal. Need to mention that overall the party was an excellent memoir to be remembered.

Dear Sir / Madam,

My name is Parviz Mohammadi. I celebrated my 25th birthday in your restaurant on the 9th of May, and that is just yesterday in the evening with my friends and relatives. The event was a great success and I must say that we really had so much fun that night.

Firstly, the food was amazing. The chicken adobo that was served for us was cooked excellently. The sauce was so creamy and yummy. Secondly, all the restaurant crews were very friendly and accommodating. They smiled at every people inside and always asked how they can help us. And finally, the place gave us the peaceful environment that night. It was a nice atmosphere inside.

Because of those things I mentioned, I am recommending you to add more space. This is so because there are many people coming to your restaurant and to accommodate all of them, a more spacious place might be needed.

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Kimia Amini. I am a regular reader of your daily newspaper “Times of India.” I am writing this letter to inform you about an authentic restaurant called “Step and Eat” which I had visited recently with my family and thought it to be a worth visiting place for others.

It is a multi-cuisine restaurant, located on Smith Street near National park in our town. I went there with my family members last Sunday. As we are fond of Italian food my husband ordered an Italian meal. The meal comprised of a delicious soup, a signature dish of the hotel known as mixed vegetable spaghetti and at the end, we had a mouth savouring dessert called marshmallows which were with a perfect creamy texture. It was one of the memorable dinners I ever had with my family.

The restaurant is worth visiting for everyone in the town because it offers a wide range of varieties in food to satisfy the human palate. Moreover, it maintains proper cleanliness and hygiene. The staff members here are so polite, co-operative as well as of welcome natured which gives a diligent feeling to the customers.

Hence I request you to write an article about the goodness of restaurant so that more people could come to know and visit it. I look forward to hearing from you.

It's great news for me because it was my dream to live in Rajshahi city.

Therefore, I want to sell my dining table, dining set and other furniture related to the kitchen.

Last month, you came to my house when my younger daughter had her 2nd birthday. At that time, you looked my dining table and other kitchen appliances and you praised it. Nevertheless, it's a large table including six chairs, all are in good condition. I prefer to you because I would like to sell this furniture to my friend rather than any unknown person.

Can you come in my house at the next weekend in the afternoon, and again look at my dining table? If you feel that it's perfect for you, you can buy this furniture. Don't need to worry about the price.

My name is Nima and I live in Seoul city. I am writing to recommend one of the best restaurants I have been to.

Last Friday was my birthday and I visited a Korean restaurant in my town. Personally, I did not expect anything about it because my originally booked Italian restaurant was cancelled due to some unavoidable reasons. Then I was feeling gloomy. However, the Korean restaurant's food swapped my melancholy state due to at that time, I ordered BBQ and ice-noodles and they served not only an incredibly delicious meal but also excellent customer services I have ever experienced.

Moreover, the restaurant's manager told that most ingredients came from organic farms. The noodle’s taste was really nice and also BBQ was perfectly grilled. Nevertheless, the restaurant was a wonderful choice for celebration but the location was not good. Any public transportation does not bring people to their location so I had to go there by my car. Furthermore, unfortunately, the manager told me that the restaurant owner was planning to close the store in the near future because of the lack of income.

It would be a good idea if you recommended the restaurant in your newspaper and I look forward to hearing your response soon.

You are unhappy about a plan to make your local airport bigger and increase the number of flights. You live near the airport.

Write a letter to your local newspaper. In your letter:

Explain where you live

Describe the problem

Give reasons why you don't want this development.

Write at least 150 words.

Sample Answer 1:

Dear Sir,

I am writing this letter to your newspaper to protest about the development of our local airport where I live.

My home is situated in Bogra city near the Bogra International Airport even more than two hundred people, including children and older people, are living here. There is a beautiful park in front of my home, where most people pass their leisure time playing, walking, and gossiping.

A huge noise is created especially at night when the airplane comes or departure in the airport. If the number of flights is increased, the noise will also raise in the local area. This could result in an immense embarrassment to the people in particular for the children because they need a quiet environment for their study purpose.

Moreover, the airport authority wants to expand the area; so, our lovely park, which is essential for every person of this locality, will be diminished. For these reasons, every person of our locality is against this proposed development. If you agree with me, please publish editorials to your newspaper to protest this unnecessary and detrimental development.

I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Shahab Radin

Sample Answer 2:

Dear Sir,

My name is Mohammad Mahjoob and I am a business man. I am writing to express my protest about the new expansion plan on the Miami International Airport. My home is situated in the Callos street next to the airport. Optimum distance from the airport runway to my house would be less than 500 meters.

Since the inception of the airport, the residents of our street are constantly confronted with the problems of noise and turbulence, created by the flights arriving at the airport. This is a significant issue as major part of our population comprise of school children. The nuisance from neighbourhood does not allow the old people a peaceful night either. Moreover, the turbulence caused by the flight at times results in cracks or even broken glass doors and house cabinets.

Now given the situation, I believe that Miami is not among the front line airports of the country and that there is a restriction imposed by the government on the number of flights operated. I would like to plea to the president an arrest on this plan because an expansion of airport will aggravate the problems in the neighbourhood community. An increase in the number of flights arriving will cause more turbulence and nuisance, which is explicit. Though I am not against any development in our countries economy, it would be ideal if the government agency involved, in the new mission could come up with an alternate approach to this issue, so that the immediate neighbours to the airport are spared of more problems.

Last but not least, I would request your editorial section to publish a report on this moot issue on your daily.

Write at least 150 words.

Sample Letter Answer 1:

Dear Sir,

I am writing this complaint letter about an accident that happened to me during buying some fresh vegetables from your supermarket.

My name is Shahin, and I am working in a multinational company as an engineer. I live at the opposite side of your supermarket. However, as a regular customer, every weekend it is necessary for me to go to the supermarket for buying some foods, fruits and other necessary items.

Yesterday it was weekend and as usual, I went to the market to buy some fresh vegetables. Suddenly, at the north corner side of the fruit market, a woman collided with me with her shopping bucket at the night time. As you know, at this corner side no one can see each other while walking especially at the night. So, this unavoidable accident occurred as the lack of attention of your management. In addition, there was no electric bulb and the road was slippery. Though this was a minor accident, it could have been worse!

This supermarket is very important for the people because every day thousands of people come here for shopping. You are the manager of this supermarket, and therefore, it is your responsibility to maintenance this place to avoid such accident. Just change the electric bulb and repair the road to avoid the unexpected accidents. I hope you will give your immediate attention to this matter.

Yours faithfully, Shahin Safari

Sample Letter Answer 2:

Dear Sir or madam,

This is Shadi, one of the regular customers of your renowned supermarket “Meena Bazar”. Today I am writing to you regarding a minor accident that I had to face while visiting your supermarket last time.

It is a matter of great regret that during my last visit to your Banani branch, I found the frozen food area completely wet and slippery. I guess it might have happened due to the inactive freezing system or any kind of technical issue. Also, the un-dynamic activity of housekeeping team was similarly responsible for it. Unfortunately, I slipped my footstep while passing that area since I did not have any idea in this regard. Although, I had managed my balance but it could have been a serious issue. I noticed many elderly people shop from your supermarket and it is quite unacceptable to have such an area that can possibly cause harm to people.

I believe, Meena Bazar authority is having the best management individuals like you and you would take proper action after getting it notified. Therefore, in the consideration of its good will, you should be more attentive regarding all kind of safety issues like this.

I recommend you, to maintenance all the electronic devices more frequently with professional bodies. Also, you should take necessary steps to hire very skilled and proactive cleaning team and make sure to properly train up the existing team.

She never differentiates people based on their race, religion, disability and colour. That is, she treats all equally and she is an exemplary personality to many.

I would like to suggest a reward for this excellent lady; a trophy printed her name and her service for the community. This should be an award for her lifetime achievement. Not only me but also many women who obtained supports through her would be happy if she receives this reward. We would be highly thankful if you could nominate Mrs. Hanieh also in your list.

I am Sajjad, tenant of one of your properties in William Street, Norwood. My flat number is 17. I am writing this to bring my dissatisfaction on some of the household stuff that you have provided as part of our rental agreement.

In the living room, the sofa is in pathetic condition. The colour of the cushion cloths is totally faded out and they are stinking too. The coffee table is disjointed. Some of the buttons of the remote controller for the television are not functioning. In the kitchen, the refrigerator is not maintaining temperature accurately and I found it futile. Grocery cupboard door locks are missing. Overall, some of the furniture you have provided is in faulty condition.

I request you to look into this matter seriously. I recommend you to arrange for repair and maintenance of the living room furniture and replace the fridge. New keys for the cupboard can be prepared by a locksmith. I expect your action on this as soon as possible, as these problems affecting my daily routine.

Yours’ Sincerely, Sajjad

Dear Ms Saradha,

I am your new tenant of the flat number 106, Pariya. Hope you are doing great. I am writing in connection with the bad condition of the furniture in my apartment.

As you already know, the legs of the dining table are unequal in length. So this is causing lots of problems for me. Miserably, my mom could not place all the prepared dishes on the table since there is always a probability of the recipes being spilt. While I signed the contract of my accommodation, you assured me that it would be replaced soon. In spite of staying here for more than two months, it has not been remedied. Imagine how awful it would be, because of this reason, we are not enjoying our lunch and dinner!

It would be highly appreciated if you could kindly find a replacement for this furniture soon and make our stay comfortable.

You should write at least 150 words.

Sample Answer:

Dear Harish,

I hope this letter finds you in good health. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for my stay at your home in Adelaide last weekend, while you were away on the business trip. I had a pleasant time over there.

I find Adelaide is very interesting for shopping. I bought a brand new Rolex wrist watch for my wife, from Rundle street shopping centre. I was actually tempted by the fascinating brown colour strap and square shaped dial. The dial has roman numbers too. I am very excited about it.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find it in my luggage when I am back to Sydney. I remember that I have kept it in your living room cupboard safe box. I want to gift it to my wife on her birthday next week and surprise her.

Actually, one of my colleagues is travelling to Sydney from your place this week end. I can request him to collect it from you. He lives just a couple of miles away from your apartment. I will pass your address and contact number to him. I think you can hand it over to him without any trouble. His name is “Brad Ryan”, around 40 years old. Please check his identity card before you hand over the stuff.

Your neighbours have recently written to you to complain about the noise from your house’s flat.

Write a letter to your neighbours. In your letter

explain the reasons for the noise

apologize

describe what action you will take

You should write at least 150 words.

Sample Answer:

To, Mr John,

I hope that you are doing well. I am writing this letter to apologise for the inconvenience caused by the party held at our residence last Saturday night.

It was my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. It was very important and joyful celebration for our family. You can imagine that in the current era it seems difficult to live with someone for five years whereas my parents have accomplished 50 years of journey beautifully so far. I came to invite your family and you for the party but the house was locked so I thought you might be away for the weekend.

We had invited close friends and relatives only so there were not many people in the party. However, the majority of the noise was due to children. We completely missed arranging activities for kids due to the last moment arrangement. So, kids were just running and shouting for fun. Moreover, the music was also bit louder and we realised very late that it might disturb the neighbourhood. I would ensure that in future we could keep the music sound as low as possible and surely arrange some fun games for kids who would keep them busy and less noisy.

Once again I would like to ask for an apology and guarantee you that it would not happen in future.

You recently bought an item of clothing from a shop. You discovered that it had a fault and returned it to the shop for replacement or refund. However, the assistant told you that this was against the store's policy.

Write a letter to the store manager, explaining the problems you have had. Ask for a refund or exchange on the item.

You should write at least 150 words.

Sample Answer:

To the Manager, A2A Fashion House, Elizabeth Super Market.

I am Nastaran, a regular customer of your store situated in Elizabeth supermarket building. I am very impressed with the unique and latest trendy collection of your store. I am writing this letter to inform you that my last shopping experience was not very satisfactory.

I bought a white colour top from your store on 14t April. When I tried it in the shop, it was perfectly alright. However, when I showed it to my roommate I realised that there is a stain on the back side of the top. It is such a big stain that it could not be ignored. I believe it was exchanged with the defective piece during the billing. I immediately went to the store to get it replaced. However, the assistant mentioned that once the item is sold it cannot be exchanged or refunded as per the store's policy. I completely understand it. However, it is unfair that a customer has to suffer due to the staff's mistake. I have not removed the price tag also from the top and it is clearly visible that the stain is very old.

I believe this matter deserve your immediate attention. I would appreciate if you could replace the top. It would certainly increase my confidence towards your customer care services as well.

You are organizing a trip to the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales for a group of students from Perth in Western Australia.

Write to the manager of Student Hostel Services and explain when you want to visit the Snowy Mountains, how long you will stay, how many students are in your party, and what accommodation you will require.

You should write at least 150 words.

Sample Answer 1:

To Mr. Frank,

I have received your contact details from one of my friends who has recently availed your service. He was very positive regarding your hospitality and recommended your hostel situated in Snowy Mountains.

I am arranging a four days trip to Snowy Mountains for the students of Perth public school. We would arrive there on 3rd April, in the morning; however, we would directly go for the site seeing. We would check in the hostel in the evening only. A group of 15 students and me would require an accommodation.

We would prefer a three sharing room as it would be convenient and economical for the students. As we are travelling from Perth, I am confident that the place might freeze us. We would appreciate if we get extra blankets along with heaters in the room. My friend has mentioned that a breakfast is included in the package. However, it would be nice if you could let me know the revised price including the dinner as well.

I expect room availability and price details to be shared via email.

Looking forward to hearing for your reply.

Anahita.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a student of the St Mary's college in Perth, Western Australia. I and my friends are planning to go on a trip to Snowy Mountains in New South Wales. Really I hope it is a great time to visit there as I heard about the place before. We like to stay in the hostel and we would really appreciate if you could help us on following matters.

We are planning to visit there on 21st of August 2015 and we will stay there until 25th. It is a group of 10 people and we need accommodation facilities for all. Moreover, we would like to have cooking facilities such as a gas cooker, an oven, a heater etc. as we would like to bring vegetables, meat and make the food there.

Our team might go to see snowy mountains for the whole day and only for the night we need these things. For now, we just need these mentioned things only and it would be great if you could let us know what are the other things required for us when we come there and we may bring them on the way to there. So hope to receive a confirmation of booking the hostel and other information.

Best Regards

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Pouriya Majidi. I am organizing a group of students from Perth Elementary School in Perth, Australia, for a Snowy Mountains in New South Wales because I am their advisor. I am writing to you today regarding the time, stay, our groups and your accommodation requirements.

Firstly, we will be visiting the mountains on the 25th of April and that would next weekend on Saturday. Secondly, I and my students will be staying in your hostel for seven days because we will be conducting a long educational trip in those snowy mountains. Thirdly, my students and I are 31 in total so we will need more rooms to accommodate us. Finally, I would like to ask what are the things your hostel is requiring for our accommodation so that we could prepare those requirements as early as possible?

I am looking forward to your immediate attention with regards to my queries.
